Would interviewing at Colgate help my chances of admission?

No; interviews are non-evaluative at Colgate.

the interviews are non-evaluative, but the alum who interviewed me said that he'd contact the admissions office and share a little something something

umm.. well not quite. The alum who interviewed me said that he'd contact the admissions office and share a little something something.

The Colgate website says interviews are non-evaluative, and in an info session at Colgate one of the admissions staff said that there is no note in your file indicating whether or not you have interviewed. If an alum wants to put a word in for you that can't hurt either but it's unlikely it can make a big difference.
